With this fascinating straight razor a new chapter in the more than a century old tradition of high end Boker straight razors begins. For the first time, we use powder metallurgical stainless Damascus for the blade of a straight razor. In a very complex and demanding process, 180 layers of Damascus steel are created by sintering the different materials to achieve the perfect material for the fine grind of the blade. The traditional hollow grind brings out the beautiful texture of the Damascus pattern perfectly. This blade, made with the latest technology available, harmonizes with the original handle scales from the 1930's, a special synthetic material with an ivory-like structure, which is very flexible and water resistant. It shows a historic Boker logo artfully inlayed in the scale, a detail which is rarely used on modern knives. This new Boker Damascus straight razor is handmade in 150 steps in the Boker Manufactory in Solingen, Germany, and is strictly limited to 500 pieces worldwide. Delivered in a wooden presentation box with a certificate of authenticity. Blade: 5/8".
